Hello everyone, First post here so move quickly. It's only been very recent that I have discovered DMT. my first experience was somewhat of an irresponsible one that was very fruitless and amateur (story for another time perhaps) recently however I have come into contact with a neo-shaman in my area who re-introduced my band mate and I to the spice. over the last 3 weeks I have tripped three times in subsequently higher does (usually with changa and a bong though I recently bought a VG due to recommendations from this forum) I am still without a break through possibly because the spice we are using is about a year old and may have lost potency (however that is about to change for we have been shown the ways of our shaman in extracting the spice now and have some very clean DMT to show for it). This is a story of my most recent Journey. I hope you enjoy

Today I traveled out of my hometown where I am visiting my mother for a few days. I had on me a 30-40mg dose of DMT that I had been gifted a few days prior (the year old changa I mentioned) and set out to find a place to take my journey. As always I had no idea what to expect but was determined to break through and learn from the experience. The spot I chose, a small creek bed with a climate reminiscent of a swamp. Clay soils, an abundance of plant and insect life, buzzing with activity and a very exiting place to be. the clear waters were stained with tannin from the leaves of as they drop for the Autumn and tasted clean but as expected gripped to my gums like over brewed black tea.

I sat down and my began meditation, I could hear in the distance the cars passing on the road above the creek and tried my best to silence my internal chatter by focusing on what was happening around me and chanting a simple mantra.

I took three hits of a full cone from my vaporizer and everything burst open with colour, the plants were very friendly to me. I closed my eyes and lay down I could still see perfectly with closed eyes. I was greeted by a huge red veil with faces pushing their way through. I heard a car pass and in a knee jerk reaction opened my eyes and suddenly became very scared and aware of myself. I lost touch with the other world and was too conscious to break through any further. I became upset that I had wasted the spice this time when everything seemed so positive. That’s when things got interesting.

The plants in the swamp told me in many ways not to worry, that I was completely safe, that I was the first person to come down to this spot in a long while and that I should relax and let them show me what they need to here and now. I was still on a pretty high range dose (considering my body weight) and it was early in the trip, so the communication was very strong and I took on board all they had to tell me. I became calm, still minded and at peace, I realised that even if I was found nothing I am doing is harmful or bad in any way which was a great comfort. After that I was able to disassociate a little more and just listen to the earth spin (for I was very much still on earth with wide eyes and a racing heart) as I stood up and the communication became weaker I became aware that the plants were happy I came to see them, happy to have someone look at them with awe and respect, and happy that I could contribute to the eco-system by feeding the mosquitoes and flies with my blood and dead skin that would one day feed the ground they grew from.

I felt touched…and kinda itchy .

What I have learned is that you cannot let the expectations of a society you fear to change the way to approach your life. I know that in future journeys I will be more comfortable even if the space I travel in is relatively public. I know that because I prefer to be outdoors during my DMT visions I run the risk of being exposed in that most vulnerable of states, however I am at peace with this negative emotion and will do all I can to make sure that comfort is consistent in other parts of my life not just when I do drugs (#rebelwithacause).

In short. I’m happy to do what is ethical and harmless to others even if the activity is a taboo as far as my government is concerned.

Hey Enso!

New here too.

Regarding outdoor trips, I can't speak from a DMT point (my first trip was here in my flat last night), but love to get outside on Lucy or Mescaline.

I normally start in the middle of the day, and choose a sunny day so I can go for a wander. If it's raining, I normally pull the plug on it until the next opportunity arises.

Near where I live, which is in a city, there's this massive hill just sticking out from all the suburbia with nothing on it apart from a few trees. My friend and I have started calling it "Peak Hill", as its always windy when you go up. You feel the air rushing past you, and as you reach the top, you have a view that stretches for miles, and includes an old fort and a massive river. Combined with a sunset and a tab of acid, it is one of my favourite spots in the world.

sounds nice . The place looks nice too, very serene. Im just not sure about that water, it doesnt seem like the kind of pond that I would enjoy swimmin in

Hey Shang I highly endorse going outside after a couple of different Settings I have used (outside in a closed area full of beautiful grasses and pine trees, alone in my house with lights and simple music playing, and in a friends house with our san pedro, some p.subs and cannabis in front of me and most recently that experience) I say without a doubt that plants colour the journey and often guide you in positive ways. It's very much worth doing it inside if you are more comfortable that way but I highly recommend having something living near you, whether it be a house plant or something in a pot, seems to work wonders for the trip. I love having presence in the room and I think it's the only way to fly. Where there is life there is love.



Haha yeah I've worked in the wine industry for a while now and I look at that kind of thing when I go hiking etc, I'm fascinated by things like tannin in the water etc although it isnt nice to drink really I find it VERY interesting how plants alter the landscape and I am in love with their impact on the animals that live in the area. for example the tannin in that water could be used to identify fossils of early mammals that lived there in their youth and map their travel across the continent simply based of the levels of that specific tannin that they have in their teeth. The minerals in the water penetrate the enamel in teeth when the animal is young so it's easy to tell where they are from by taking samples isn't that wild!?
